Sardines In A Train

PATH train from Hoboken to 33rd Street. All NJ Transit trains going to Penn Station have been rerouted to Hoboken. So there are just too many people on the track waiting for the PATH train. All characters finally get onto a train. Everyone is squished like sardines in the car. Lady #1 and Lady #2 are leaning against Husband to keep from falling down. Husband has a dog in a carrying case steadied between his legs. Wife is schmushed up against the car door and barricaded in place by a suitcase of another passenger.

Lady #1: He deserves a massage for being such a gentleman.Lady #1 starts to massage Husband’s shoulders.

All the passengers in vicinity, including Husband and Wife laugh.Wife: That’s the most action he’s gotten all week so I’m sure he’s happy.

Passengers laugh again.

Husband (to Lady #1): You can lean on me anytime.

Train takes a nasty turn and everyone falls into each other. Man holds up Husband from falling which prevents Lady #1 and Lady #2 from falling. Man is holding onto Husband’s arm to steady both of them.

Man: You okay sir?

Husband: Thanks to you.

Man: Just don’t expect a shoulder rub okay?All the passengers in the vicinity laugh.

Lady #1 -(jokingly and rubbing Man’s shoulders) Well then, I will give him another one since you won’t.

Wife (to husband): That’s was pretty freakin’ cool how everyone was so nice to each other under those not fun circumstances. I’m almost glad the train got derailed. Twenty minutes of strangers loving each other up.

Husband: Yeah, and I got a good couple of shoulder rubs out of the whole deal. A good day if you ask me….
